Authentication and Authorization strategies with NestJS and Ory

Description
According to OWASP 10, broken access control is web applications' most common security vulnerability. In this context, it is more crucial than ever for (NestJS) developers to be empowered with solutions that enhance their application's security without sacrificing efficiency.
This presentation focuses on integrating Ory, an open-source identity and access control management toolkit, with NestJS to provide a complete security solution. Attendees will discover practical strategies for implementing authentication and authorization in their backend applications, ensuring they are secure, scalable, and developer-friendly.
Attendees will leave with actionable insights into setting up, configuring, and deploying authentication strategies using Ory within the NestJS framework. From live coding sessions demonstrating essential techniques to detailed discussions on overcoming common integration challenges, participants will gain hands-on knowledge that can be immediately applied to their projects.
